At least they document the changes, I don't know if libdnet ever merged those back, it might be worth looking at that.
I just had a quick look and it appears that all/most of the changes are not included in libdnet-1.11.
I don't think there is any way we can fix this currently. The modifications made in the nmap version include some fixes and a patch that adds support for SCTP. Nmap won't compile against a libdnet which doesn't have this patch, and it's not included in the upstream version (yet).
What I found out about disentangling the bundled libs so far: 1) libdnet-stripped is hard-coded in various C headers and elsewhere 2) dev-libs/libdnet-1.12 supports SCTP, so we should be able to fairly easily switch, if it weren't for 1). 3) liblinear[1] is not in the tree 4) autotools changes are difficult (e.g. [2]) I made some initial progress but then I got tired and threw away my work in disgust. This isn't going to be easy. [1] http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/liblinear/ [2] CHANGELOG:Cleaned up the libpcre build system a bit by removing Makefile.am
any news about this? this seems to block nmap 6.40 which is out since 29-Jul-2013

In all three cases, upstream build scripts require version 5.3 of Lua and while they do not use pkgconfig, they check for versioned files/directories first. IUSE=system-lua is still there but defaults to enabled now.

nmap can now build against system Lua, all that remains to be done is to move its USE=system-lua mask from package.use.mask to package.use.stable.mask.

Fix that by just dropping system-lua as a flag, so we now always use the system Lua if we need it (i.e. if we're building nse).
